Tag rag merry derry, periwig and hat band,
Hic hoc horum Genetive.

Can I decline a nymph divine,
Her voice like a flute is Dulcis,
Her occolus bright, her Manus white,
And soft when I tacto her pulsis.
Rorum Corum &c.

O how Bella, my Puella;
I'll kiss in Secula Seculorum,
If I’ve luck sir, she’s my Uxor,
O Dies Benedictorum,
Rorum Corum, &c.


WONDERFUL SONG.

WHAT a wonderful age ’tis my lads,
And what wonderful people live in it,
We’ve wonderful mammas and dads,
Fresh wonders arise every minute.
We’ve wonderful ships in our Navy,
And wonderful soldiers and sailors,
We’ve wonderful beef full of gravy,
And wonderful cabbage for tailers.

We've wonderful Pilots I trow,
To steer us thro’ wonderful dangers,
John Bull is a wonderful cow,
Admired by natives and strangers.
